Sao Paulo's March Against Sexual Harassment

Deemed the "SlutWalk," citizens of Sao Paulo and surrounding areas marched against sexual harassment on May 25. Hopefully this kind of demonstration actually changes some misogynistic mindsets out there, because we as a race should be far beyond this kind of thinking already.

Activists take part in the "SlutWalk" in Sao Paulo, Brazil on May 25, 2013. The event was held to protest any form of sexual harassment of any gender in public places among other issues. "SlutWalk" protests originated in Toronto, Canada, where they were sparked by a police officer's remark that women could avoid being raped by not dressing like "sluts".
